Summer Festival

"Oh! We can still see the sea here."

Suddenly, Rikka's surprised voice was heard five or six meters away.

From the side of the hot spring hotel's open-air bath, one can see the coastline of Izu in the distance.

"Indeed, the environment here is quite good."

Utaha nodded in agreement.

Surrounded by mountains and trees, the hotel is a very antique Japanese original wooden building, but there is absolutely no feeling of old and dilapidated. But full of a sense of homeliness, nostalgia, and approachability.

"This is a very good hotel. Looks like tonight is going to be a really fun night."

She looked at her surroundings, her cheeks slightly reddened, and she reached out from under the water to hold Asahi's hand.

How to react at such a moment, Utaha had an abnormally beautiful hope for today's journey in her heart.

Nayuta seemed to notice something was wrong, approached and embraced Asahi's other hand like a demonstration, her expression was the same as Utaha's, and her eyes were full of affection.

The two beautiful girls looked full of anticipation. Given the current atmosphere, Asahi seemed to be responding to their expectations, but Hina was still there, sullenly expressing her dissatisfaction.

After soaking for a bit, Kobato's stomach let out a growl.

With a sound of protest, when it was time to eat, everyone got up one by one.

After the hot spring baptism, they felt that all the fatigue that had accumulated in their bodies had disappeared.

When Asahi returned to his room, lunch was ready, and the rectangular table was filled with various dishes. Including delicacies from the mountains, sea, big fish and meat.

"Ittadakimasu!"

After speaking in unison, everyone who happened to be hungry was extremely grateful to that caring inn boss.

The fresh sashimi is delicious, the wild vegetable tempura is delicious, the dry grilled fish is also delicious, the wagyu steak is even more indescribable, and the pasta made from an unknown ingredient is also very good. Simply put, everything is delicious.

Kobato moved her chopsticks continuously: "Onii-chan, your portion is delicious for me."

Reluctantly, Asahi gave all of the beef to his little sister, but he soon discovered the meat.

It disappeared into Kobato's mouth.

"You're too careless about image, Kobato!"

Rikka watched Kobato stare at her beef halves, panicking and staring at her warily like a small animal protecting its food.

"If Kobato wants it, I have it right here."

Utaha saw every opportunity to increase favorability.

"Hmph, I can too!"

Nayuta also followed suit.

So the steak for the three of them disappeared, and Asahi only ate one piece.

There was also a benefit, in Kobato's heart, the two girls' liking increased linearly.

"Asahi."

Mashiro who sat next to him took the steak.

"Do you want to give it to me?"

"My flesh will not be given to you."

She shoved the steak into her mouth.

"So, what did you call me for?"

Seeing Mashiro eating delicious beef, Asahi felt for the first time the feeling of being cheated.

"Delicious."

With most of the dishes on the table eaten and the dinner party going from affluence to decline. Nayuta proposed going to the game area to play, and Utaha also planned to take a walk to digest some food.

Then, a group of bathrobed people came to the game area near the big bath.

"I will defeat you this time!"

"Oh, you only have one gross characteristic."

Utaha and Nayuta had an indispensable table tennis match in the game area near the large public bath.

The two of them engaged in a fierce back-and-forth fight.

"Come on, you two!"

Rikka cheered.

"Rikka, this is delicious, eat and see."

Kobato didn't know where to find snacks, and shared the food.

"Then I won't be polite."

Then Rikka and Kobato were eating Japanese hot spring steamed buns on the couch in the game area. They usually bicker with each other, but they actually had a very good relationship.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! Amazing!"

There was a trembling voice, and what looked really comfortable was Hina who was using the massage chair.

"Wow wah wah."

Making a strange shaking sound, sitting on the rocking massage chair was Mashiro, her expression remained unchanged, as usual, not knowing if she was comfortable or not.

But they all enjoy the excitement of a hot spring hotel in their own way.

Asahi comes out of the game area and chats with the innkeeper for a while, learning that there is a summer festival at a secret shrine in a nearby town tonight. If interested, they can take a walk.

He learns that the Atami Fireworks Festival will be held three days later, and the Obon Festival will start later in the weekend.

It seems that the Obon Festival is not on time, and Asahi has to return to Tokyo to participate in the summer.

Since today was a day of rest, the group of eight people would stay at the hot spring hotel until the evening.

After a day of fuss, Asahi decides to take all the girls to a summer festival at a shrine in a nearby town.

"They have takoyaki?"

Rikka's eyes brightened.

At this time, Kobato tugged on Asahi's clothes: "Kukuku, I allow you to immortalize the long-lost takoyaki!"

"Then let's go together."

"Good!"

Kobato and Rikka shouted in unison, and stared at each other with eyes full of sparks.

"Kukuku, Tyrant Eyes, for the sake of takoyaki, is it okay to coexist with the True Ancestor?"

Kobato is suffering from Chuunibyou again.

"No way, for the sake of takoyaki, it doesn't matter even if I sell its soul to the devil."

Kobato and Rikka started acting again, they sure knew how to find opportunities.

"Summer Festival, this is a rare opportunity, I also want to go!"

Nayuta raised her hand to show her determination.

After asking the innkeeper to lend them several sets of yukata, a group of eight people came to a nearby town at around 7 p.m. The shrine was not far from the hill.

Kobato and Rikka were wearing mini yukata with short skirts, which really suited them.

"Okay, let's go."

Under the envious glances of others, Asahi walked through the shopping street with seven beauties of various sizes.

Of course, there are many people on the shopping street, and carp fishing or shooting stalls are lined up on one side. The crowd is at the takoyaki stalls, and delicious aromas waft from the various food stalls.

Since he didn't have dinner, Asahi really wants to go and buy something to eat, and Rikka and Koto totally agree with him.
